This question is quite significant in this course because we will be focusing on you! Who can guess what all of the larger text words are from?
Let’s get to know a bit more about me!
I was born and raised in Prince George, a city in Northern BC. I grew up playing ice hockey on a pond, you would not get to experience this here unfortunately. I have a family of 5 consisting of my parents, my older sister and younger brother.
Here are some of the companies that I have been associated with. I grew up playing ice hockey in Abbotsford and have always had a passion for the Canucks. Rick Hansen, Panago, Kumon, Sauder- Accounting & HR Co-op, Gamma Phi (1st year), Deramore, Me Inc, Order of Omega, YVR, KPMG

This has been said many times before, but it is important to treat this course like a rehearsal or a practice. This is the only opportunity you will have to take advantage of this course before the “real world.” I am not an expert at this course, but from my experience I can tell you that this one credit is worth more than any of my three credit courses.
Where can we find job postings?! Make sure that the job postings are in relation to the field that you are interested in!
Create groups (# them off 1 to 4/5) *strict 3 min limits
